Chapter 16: The Return of King Xun
Outside the palace of King Xun.
Princess Yunzheng's face was painted with exquisite makeup, dressed in gorgeous clothes, and the wonderful curves were outlined, which made people's blood gush, standing outside the mansion with Li Chengxiao, and Concubine Zheng Xuan was also not lagging behind, carefully dressed, dressed in noble clothes, and her figure was also proud, standing aside with Li Zhi, with Xu Yin behind her, Chi Duanshan and other officials in the mansion waiting behind her, and there were crowds of people outside the mansion.
The news of King Xun's return to the house has already been transmitted, and when King Xun got up, someone took the lead in communicating to the palace, and everyone was dressed up at this moment to welcome King Xun home.
Two red rays swept from the sky and landed in front of everyone, and the servants and slaves all showed panicked expressions when they saw King Xun, and hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to look directly.
"See the prince!"
The servants in the house knelt on the ground and saluted, for fear of provoking this decisive and prestigious prince.
"Lord Wang, you're finally back. ”
Princess Yunzheng moved the lotus step, moved her posture and walked to King Xun's side, stretched out a pair of white hands to support King Xun, and took him from the red-scaled three-eyed lion.
King Xun swept his eyes and looked at everyone, as if he was looking for something but didn't find it, so he said, "Get up." ”
Everyone also stood up and retreated to the sides, still bowing their heads, not daring to look directly at King Xun.
"Mother!"
A neutral voice sounded, and a figure instantly swept over another red-scaled three-eyed lion, and instantly appeared in front of Concubine Zheng Xuan, it was Li Guan.
Li Guan has been stationed at the border with King Xun for nearly a year, and the father and son have not returned home during this year, Li Guan has changed a lot in a year, he has grown taller, his physique has also become stronger, although his face has not changed much, he can still feel his perseverance, and at this moment he saw that Concubine Zheng Xuan changed back to the appearance of a child.
"Grow taller, grow taller..."
Concubine Zheng Xuan was also very excited, her body trembled slightly, her mouth opened and closed tightly, and she wanted to say a lot of words, but at this moment, she could only say one sentence repeatedly, holding Li Guan's arm with both hands, and looking at it carefully.
"Brother!"
A crisp voice sounded, and Li Zhi, who was on the side, also rushed to Li Guan's side, stretched out her jade lotus-like arms to hug Li Guan, her huge eyes blinked, and she looked cute and loving.
"Zhi'er has grown so big!
Li Guan squatted down directly, picked up Li Zhi with one hand, and let her ride on his neck, although Li Zhi is also ten years old, but in Li Zhi, he is still the crybaby who likes to follow behind him.
"Think, why did my brother come back!" Li Zhi was also very happy, giggling non-stop, the last time I saw Li Guan was a year ago.
The reunion of the family is always joyful, and King Xun, who was on the side, was red when he saw it, so he interrupted.
"Hmph..."
"Zhi'er, do you want to be a father?" King Xun looked at Li Zhi's eyes full of tenderness, walked up to Li Zhi in two steps, and asked with his face full of stubble against Li Zhi.
"Hahaha, Zhi'er misses her father!"
"Gurgle... Father, itchy!"
Li Zhi was taken by King Xun and held in his arms, still playing with Li Zhi affectionately. Li Zhi is the only female doll among his four children, so she naturally likes it very much.
This scene naturally fell in the eyes of Princess Yunzheng, a resentment rose instantly, the slender and white fingers were clenched uncontrollably, the ruddy lips were tightly closed for a while, and there was an extremely complicated look in the apricot eyes, dissatisfaction, jealousy, and even a trace of hidden killing intent.
Seeing this, Li Chengxiao hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and said in a decent manner: "My father is finally back, and my mother made preparations early when she got the news half a month ago, and even cleaned up the palace completely, looking forward to my father's return home day and night." ”
When King Xun heard this, he walked up to Princess Yunzheng with Li Zhi in his arms, and said, "Princess, I am very relieved that the palace is controlled by you. ”
Princess Yunzheng smiled slightly, her posture was like a fairy, and she said gently: "This is what I should do." ”
King Xun nodded, and didn't say anything more, still teasing with Li Zhi, and the good mood that Princess Yunzheng had just raised was instantly destroyed.
"Lord Wang, Cheng Xiao's cultivation has also risen sharply now, and Sect Master Xu Yin has also praised it again and again!" Princess Yunzheng said.
As soon as these words came out, King Xun's attention finally moved away from Li Zhi, and he looked at Li Chengxiao with a gleam in his eyes, this third son was born with a sword body, and King Xun had high expectations for him.
"What are you cultivating now?" King Xun looked at Li Chengxiao with a hint of expectation, and the original majestic image of the war king also dissipated, and he only looked like a father who wanted his son Jackie Chan.
"The Shangqing Sword Technique has reached the first layer, and it has also entered the Spirit Pillar Stage. Li Chengxiao's eyes burst with light, like a sharp sword that wanted to penetrate everything, and went straight to King Xun.
King Xun looked at Li Chengxiao with satisfaction, and did not dodge the light that pierced in that moment, only to see that his body suddenly turned into a galaxy, in which many stars were surrounded, and many stars collided and made a terrifying explosion, and the meaning of destruction permeated this galaxy, and the sword light did not enter it and disappeared without a trace.
"Is this the strength of my father!"
Li Chengxiao originally wanted to let King Xun see his cultivation results, but he shocked himself first, and as soon as King Xun Xinghe unfolded, Li Chengxiao did not have a trace of resistance, and his momentum weakened instantly, and the intention of destruction swept in, and the fear in his heart was infinitely magnified.
This scene naturally made Xu Yin behind him see it, and he also sighed lightly and shook his head.
"Cultivation is progressing quite quickly, but... You can work hard in the future, and don't waste your talents. ”
King Xun originally expected Li Chengxiao to surprise him, so he tried one or two casually, but now he was not very satisfied with the results, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.
"If you want to reach the extreme, you need to give everything for it. A sword is out, why be afraid. Xu Yin said a sentence slowly.
As soon as these words came out, there was an instant smile in the eyes of the people around Li Chengxiao, who wanted to show his hands and feet but the gains outweighed the losses, which made Li Chengxiao's tall neck soften, and Princess Yunzheng was also a little angry, watching King Xun still happily teasing Li Zhi, and her heart was even more annoyed.
"Xiao'er is still young, and it is not easy to cultivate like this. Princess Yunzheng didn't show her anger, she still looked like she was smiling, and said softly: "Lord, let's enter the mansion!"
King Xun nodded, touched Li Chengxiao's head to show encouragement, and walked towards the mansion with Li Zhi in his arms, Princess Yunzheng also hurriedly followed, Concubine Zheng Xuan smiled, looking like a lotus, although he was not cared about by King Xun, but his two children were deeply liked by King Xun, so he no longer excessively angered Princess Yunzheng and followed behind.
"Third brother, have you cultivated to the Spirit Pillar Stage?" Li Guan followed behind King Xun and asked as he approached Li Chengxiao's side and looked at him with a fanatical expression.
"En, big brother, what realm have you cultivated to now?" Li Chengxiao replied politely although he was upset.
"Big brother is not as talented as you, and he has just entered the First Spirit Sea Realm. ”
Li Guan was a little embarrassed, after all, his cultivation speed was too slow compared to Li Chengxiao, and he had not yet cultivated to the Spirit Pillar Stage when Li Chengxiao was so old.
"Congratulations to the eldest brother, cultivate for diligence. Li Chengxiao responded absentmindedly, and the two followed King Xun to the mansion.
And Chi Duanshan also silently followed the team, looking at the happy appearance of the family, and couldn't help but think of Li Wen in his heart.
"The prince hasn't asked the second son until now, and sure enough, as people say, the prince doesn't like the second son, and the poor second son is still at the bottom of the falling dragon cliff..."
Perhaps because he was in his twilight years, the iron and blood of the original soldiers of Chi Duan Mountain gradually dissipated, and the feeling of concern surrounded his heart all the time, and he followed King Xun with his back bent and staggering.
"Find an opportunity to plead with King Xun, after all, I promised the second son..."
King Xun entered the palace gate and found a spacious garden to walk, and Princess Yunzheng also retreated the redundant subordinates in a timely manner, Chi Duanshan hesitated or stepped to follow, which made Princess Yunzheng glared at the apricot eyes fiercely, but Chi Duanshan pretended not to see it or staggered into the garden.
In a corridor, King Xun found a place and sat directly on it, and the spiritual power drummed and blew away the dust.
"Has Zhi'er played the piano well?" King Xun looked like a loving father, and if others saw King Xun's appearance at the moment, they would definitely be shocked and their jaws would fall.
"I played well, but A-Niang always said that I didn't play well. Li Zhi said aggrievedly, and a layer of mist instantly appeared in her dark eyes, "You see my fingers are broken." ”
"You don't play the piano well! Every time you pretend!" Zheng Xuanfei laughed lightly when she heard this, and then pretended to be stern and said.
"Don't be too strict, Zhi'er is still young. King Xun interrupted Concubine Zheng Xuan's words and said with a hint of reproach in his tone.
Concubine Zheng Xuan glared at Li Zhi, and said, "You have found a good backer, and you can go with the prince next time he goes to the border." ”
Li Zhi hid in King Xun's arms, stuck out her tongue, and hurriedly turned her head into her arms, and her naughty appearance made Concubine Zheng Xuan helpless.
"Lord Wang, Xiao'er has also encountered a lot of problems in his cultivation, and you can help him too. Princess Yunzheng also interrupted the exit at the right time.
"I can mention one or two points along the way of cultivation, but if it is all the way of the sword, it all depends on Sect Master Xu, and I can't mention it. It's up to him to grope around. King Xun looked at Li Chengxiao and said warmly.
Li Chengxiao and Princess Yunzheng glanced at each other, and both saw the helplessness and anger of both parties, so they had no choice but to nod and say nothing more.
"Lord, lord. ”
"Save the first son, save the second son! The second son is still locked up at the bottom of the Falling Dragon Cliff. ”
Chi Duanshan's footsteps were a little slow, and when she just arrived, Princess Yunzheng happened to be deflated, found a vacancy, and knelt on the ground to plead with King Xun.
